Changing the title from "Tickets" to something else (like "Register Now")

[Bill Even]

Please see: http://chestnutridgeconservancy.org/event/2nd-annual-chestnut-ridge-summer-classic-tennis-tournament/

below the venue block it says “Tickets.” Can this be changed?

Thanks,

Bill

Good evening Bill and welcome back!

Thank you for reaching out to us.
I would love to help you with this topic.

There are mainly 2 ways to go about this:

1. By doing a template customization on the single-event view. You might want to read our Themer’s guide to get a sense of how that works.
2. Use a snippet such as the following to replace tickets by something else: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/change-the-wording-of-any-bit-of-text-or-string/

Let me know if that helps.

Have a great day!

OK, I tried editing the functions.php file in my child theme. Naturally I broke it. I was able to restore the old file, so no harm-no foul.

This is what I got —

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting ‘)’ in /home/content/51/13953751/html/crc2/wp-content/themes/chestnut-ridge-conservancy/functions.php on line 33

In the instructions you referred me to, it states:

“You may need to remove the opening <?php tag if your theme’s functions.php already has one.”

Mine does, but I don’t get why.

This is the entire contents of the functions.php file in the child theme:

<?php
/**
* Functions – Child theme custom functions
*/

/*****************************************************************************************************************
Caution: do not remove this or you will lose all the customization capabilities created by Divi Children plugin */
require_once(‘divi-children-engine/divi_children_engine.php’);
/****************************************************************************************************************/

/**
* Patch to fix Divi issue: Duplicated Predefined Layouts.
*/
remove_action( ‘admin_init’, ‘et_pb_update_predefined_layouts’ );
function Divichild_pb_update_predefined_layouts() {
if ( ‘on’ === get_theme_mod( ‘et_pb_predefined_layouts_updated_2_0’ ) ) {
return;
}
if ( ! get_theme_mod( ‘et_pb_predefined_layouts_added’ ) OR ( ‘on’ === get_theme_mod( ‘et_pb_predefined_layouts_added’ ) )) {
et_pb_delete_predefined_layouts();
}
et_pb_add_predefined_layouts();
set_theme_mod( ‘et_pb_predefined_layouts_updated_2_0’, ‘on’ );
}
add_action( ‘admin_init’, ‘Divichild_pb_update_predefined_layouts’ );

?>

Can you show me where/how to insert your suggest custom code?

Thank you!

Bill

Hey Bill,

I’m sorry to hear that trying to add the snippet broke your site (at least temporarily).

I would recommend adding the snippet just above the “Patch to fix Divi issue” section.

If you are still struggling with this, I would recommend sending me a copy of your child theme so that I can do this for you (via a .zip file).

Let me know how that goes.

Best regards,
Geoff B.
